CSV was engaged by Queen’s University to renovate the Stauffer Library lower level to relocate their library staff to a new modern office environment. The goal of the renewal was to relocate as well as consolidate staff in a contemporary work environment and provide a new multi-purpose seminar nature inspired space for staff and students.

This relocation takes advantage of the large windows on the west side of the building, unusual for a basement space. The project was a phased project, built while the library was in use by both staff and students. The relocation of staff allowed for a new multi-purpose seminar room for up to 100 participants. The space has an advanced audio-visual system complete with multiple screens so everyone in the room has clear views to the presentations. When not used as a seminar room the space transforms into a collaborative student agile learning space.

Sustainable Features:
An agile and flexible learning space with greater natural light transformed this previous dark basement space. Now, used for presentations or for student collaboration, the advanced audio-visual system and recycled furniture enable greater flexibility to meet the differing student learning needs.
